    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Office type; open-plan office; flex office; cell office; performance; job satisfaction; distraction; self-rated health; well-being; cognitive stress; exhaustion; individual differences; personality; concentration; stim-ulus screening ability; memory; Kontorstyp; kontorslandskap; flexkontor; cellkontor; produktivitet; arbetstillfredsställelse; distraktion; självskattat hälsa; trivsel; kognitiv stress; utmattning; individuella skillnader; personlighet; koncentration; arbetsminne; Psychology; psykologi;

    Abstract : Today, many organisations are adopting offices that have an open design with or without flexible seating. While advocates of open-plan offices propose that these office types lead to cost savings and aid inter and intra-team communication, opponents argue that these office types are associated with decreased performance and worsened health among employees.

    Abstract : Aquatic organisms are constantly at risk of being exposed to potentially harmful chemical compounds of natural or anthropogenic origin. Biological life can for instance respond to chemical stressors by changes in gene expression, and thus, certain gene transcripts can potentially function as biomarkers, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 4. Process development of III-V-based infrared detectors

    Author : David Ramos Santesmases; Per-Erik Hellström; Sanjay Krishna; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; infrared detectors; Type-II superlattice; surface leakage; high operating temperature; passivation; optical concentration; modulation transfer function; noise.; infraröda detektorer; Typ-II supergitter; ytströmmar; hög arbetstemperatur; passivering; optisk koncentration; moduleringsöverföringsfunktion; brus; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Type-II Superlattice (T2SL) detectors have revolutionized the field of infraredimaging, establishing themselves as the forefront technology in defense, space,and industrial applications. These detectors enable larger formats and higheroperating temperatures (HOT) that minimize the need for bulky and energyconsumingcryogenic cooling, paving the way for imaging systems with reducedSize, Weight, and Power (SWaP).

  5. 5. Dicke narrowing and speed-dependent effects in dispersion signals : Influence on assessment of concentration and spectral parameters by noise-immune cavity-enhanced optical heterodyne molecular spectrometry

    Author : Junyang Wang; Ove Axner; Livio Gianfrani; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dicke narrowing; Speed-dependent effects; Dispersion signals; Noise-immune cavity-enhanced optical heterodyne molecular spectrometry NICE-OHMS ; accuracy;

    Abstract : Laser spectroscopic techniques have, during the last decades, demonstrated an extraordinary capability for sensitive detection of molecular constituents in gas phase. Since spectra from such techniques constitute unique and characteristic signatures for each type of species, these techniques enable investigations of molecular structures as well as detection of the presence of species in a gas mixture.
